Nigel Farage

[Orang Utan]

The same exact method twice in 5 years? And he's now all over the front pages as a 'marytr'. The last time it happened his popularity rocketed with his base.

People don’t like him and want to throw milkshakes at him. No need for them to fake something that’s going to happen anyway

 

[pogofish]

A fix? Wtf you on about? Lots of people are going to be chucking milkshakes at him

I hope it starts a trend and happens every time he shows his face in public from now-on.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Best to process the beer first. Then throw your wee.

Poor girl, she’s a bit too recognisable there. A hat would have been sensible.

Yeah sadly she probably will get nicked for it and get a fine or cs. Hopefully she knew that.

Well guess whose face is currently at the top of all newspapers' websites and is trending on twitter?

He's an absolute shit but he does know how to work the media. His shit on GMB this morning where he told them he's planning to destroy the Tory party and bring them into his own party. They walked right into it.

None of this indicates that it’s a fix. There was no need for it. It was an inevitabilty.

Sunak and Starmer have been wiped off the front pages. Hours before their debate. Sadly I'm more cynical than you.

If she was a supporter (which i don't think) then it'll come out soon enough as the press will be looking into her.

It's not just two bullseyes, there's been many attempts.

On Wednesday, in the final push before voters go to the polls, Farage was trapped on his turquoise Brexit Party bus after someone spotted three men near the back of a crowd of supporters wearing balaclavas and brandishing milkshakes (flavor unknown) at a campaign stop in Kent.

Flavor unknown

“Milkshaking” has now become the demonstration du jour in Britain ahead of European elections. These elections are especially contentious in the UK, as it was supposed to be out of the EU by now and not participating in this process at all.

And, it's not just been Farage as a target.

UKIP candidate Carl Benjamin, a YouTuber known as Sargon of Akkad with a history of misogynistic comments, has gotten slimed with milkshakes at least four times this campaign season. And Tommy Robinson, an Islamophobic firebrand, got milkshaked twice in two days.

Tossing an ice-cream drink at a politician or public figure whose views you find abhorrent certainly makes a political point, and it is admittedly kind of funny. But some have condemned the incidents, saying they send the message that it’s acceptable to attack or silence people with force.

Why protesters are throwing milkshakes at Nigel Farage

The Brexit champion is a divisive candidate in the European parliamentary elections. Protesters are hoping dairy products can stop him.

If martyrdom involves as little as a pint over the head I'll sign up.

Hopefully, Mr Farage will explain his organisation's policies and competence to deal with issues relating to national and personal security.​

1. the message it puts out is that he is someone who many people hate - including people in supposedlly pro-farage clacton.
2. It will have really pissed him off.
3. What the fuck is there not to like about this event?

And this proves your conspiracy theory? Of course such an image is going to be reported widely, but that doesn’t mean what you seem to think it does.

Proud of this tradition

Love Milkshakes, Hate Racism: A short history of throwing food at the far right

In the last month, milkshakes have been lobbed at several far right candidates in the Euro elections. First it was former English Defence League leader Tommy Robinson, then UKIP’s misogynist YouTub…

That wasn't the milkshake. It was a picture taken after his interview with Darren Grimes this morning

People who will vote for him will be cross about this. Most of the rest of us will laugh.

I’m going to check if Paddy Power are offering odds on the Farage milkshake election total

Should be a national sport.

I'd rather roll him down a hill in Gloucestershire.

How sticky are milkshakes? Just idly wondering if "milkshaking-and-feathering" might work?

Might as well give it a go.
Or roll him in hot chips and wheel him out onto the pier for the gulls to have their way with him

Beautiful shot

I hope it was sat on a radiator for days before lobbing it.

And, the police.

She has been arrested.
